INTRO: D A G D Verse 1 D The eagle looked down on the river below D A G And he wrapped his wings 'round him and he fell like a stone D A Bm E And the big salmon fought but the talons held true D A G D And he shuddered as the world turned from silver to blue Verse 2 D I stood there in awe though I?d seen it before A G I was born in these mountains, And I?ll die here for sure D A Bm E I?ve travelled around I?ve seen city lights D A G D But nothin? that shined like the big sky at night

Chorus: A D Some mornings will find me up above the timberline G D Lonesome don?t seem like much once you?re this high D A Bm E When it?s all said and done I usually find D A G D Me and the eagle are of the same mind Verse 3 D Now when I was young I took me a wife D A G But she never took to the high country life D A Bm E So now I?m alone I don?t really mind D A G D But her name echoes down from the canyon sometimes Chorus: A D Some mornings will find me up above the timberline G D Lonesome don?t seem like much once you?re this high D A Bm E When it?s all said and done I usually find D A G D Me and the eagle are of the same mind Verse 4 D In my dreams there?s a horse, He stands eighteen hands high D A G He?s as white as the snow and there?s fire in his eyes D A Bm E And he?ll bare only me though others would try D A G D Together we?ll travel up across the divide Chorus: A D Some mornings will find me up above the timberline G D Lonesome don?t seem like much once you?re this high D A Bm E When it?s all said and done I usually find D A G D
